Angarrack history

---

Angarrack is shown on maps as far back as the sixteenth century. A mill known as Melynbran was recorded in 1342 and may be the mill, Conarditone, recorded in Domesday. The village was formerly a centre of industry with mining and quarrying.

Hayle Railway

In 1834 the Hayle Railway built a 4-foot 8½ inch gauge track, over the 9.5 miles (15.3 km) from Hayle to Redruth. Above Angarrack originally horses, and from 1843 a stationary engine, hauled the trains up and down an incline. The present 11-span viaduct was built in 1888 for Great Western Railway.
